Diana's expression was tinged with a hint of sorrow as she said, "More than ten years ago, the vampires paid a heavy price to snatch away the body of Cain. My mother was also gravely injured at that time while repelling the enemy, and ultimately died from her wounds."

"From what I know, the three major clans must have obtained a secret treasure that surpasses the holy relics of the vampires. That is why they were willing to pay such a heavy price to reclaim Cain's body, as they believe that with it, they can resurrect him and gain a power far greater than before."

André's breathing became noticeably rapid, clearly indicating that the existence of "Cain" was a source of extreme fear for him.

The progenitor of the vampires, Cain, was almost an unshakeable nightmare for every member of the British royal family.

For over two thousand years, the British royal family has never ceased its open and covert struggles with the vampires. Whether during the terrifying era of the Norse Vikings, the three Crusades, the prolonged Anglo-French wars, or even the peaceful era after World War II, the rivalry and博弈 between these two forces of good and evil have never ceased.

If the power of the British royal family is rooted in holy forces and holy relics, passed down through generations, then the power of the vampires can be traced back to Cain alone.

In the vampire community, almost everyone is his descendant, inheriting his bloodline, though the purity varies.

In the past century, the British royal family has barely managed to suppress the vampires, primarily due to Cain's "demise." However, if Cain were to be revived and regain control of the vampires, everything would change.

London, the capital and largest port of the United Kingdom, together with thirty-two boroughs, forms the concept of "Greater London," a world-class metropolis and one of the most prosperous cities globally.

At this moment, walking through Piccadilly Circus in London, Su Yang couldn't help but feel a sense of temporal disarray, as if he had returned to his previous life, strolling hand in hand with Evelyn.

Stopping at the entrance of a store named Fortnum & Mason, Su Yang couldn't help but pause, a faint smile appearing on his lips as he stepped inside.

This is a historic old store, known for its specialty teas and caviar. In the past, Evelyn loved the caviar from this store, and every time she came with Su Yang, she would buy some.

The interior of the store had changed little from what Su Yang remembered from his previous life, which made him feel nostalgic. He found a seat by the window, called a waiter with a perfect London accent, and ordered a premium caviar worth 120 pounds, along with a glass of chilled vodka, which was Evelyn's favorite combination.

After paying and leaving the store, a disheveled man in a gray coat approached Su Yang. As they passed each other, the man skillfully tried to steal the wallet from Su Yang's coat pocket, a move so quick it could be considered the MVP of pickpockets.

However, it was clear that no thief in this world could steal from Su Yang. Before the man could even touch him, Su Yang had already broken his wrist, the clear sound of the bone breaking causing the man to cry out in pain.

After giving the man a small lesson, Su Yang didn't bother to pursue the matter. Just as he was about to leave, two more men with sinister expressions rushed at him, each wielding a dagger.

London has always been a city where pickpockets are rampant, and they often operate in gangs. It was clear that Su Yang had been targeted while ordering his meal in the store, and these men intended to rob a foreigner, only to meet their match.

"Really asking for it," Su Yang said impatiently, delivering two powerful slaps. The two men, who had rushed at him with knives, were sent flying several meters away, each spitting out four teeth.

The commotion drew the attention of two British police officers patrolling the square, who quickly approached and focused their gaze on Su Yang.

At this moment, the man whose wrist Su Yang had broken, sweating profusely, got up and approached the two police officers, mumbling a long explanation. Su Yang even heard him call the officers by name, indicating that he knew them. It was clear that this pickpocket gang had connections with the police, a typical case of police and criminals working together.

"You, you are suspected of assaulting someone in a public place. Come with us to the police station," a fat, pot-bellied police officer said menacingly as he approached Su Yang.

"When did London become such a den of filth?" Su Yang gave the officer a cold glance and said disdainfully, "Are you blind? These pickpockets stole my wallet, and I disciplined them, but now you want to accuse me of assault?" Because of Su Yang's perfect London accent, the officer's arrogant attitude softened slightly, and he looked at Su Yang suspiciously, asking, "Are you a British Chinese?"

"I am Chinese!" Su Yang was even more irritated.

Upon hearing this, the fat officer's attitude changed dramatically, and he said sternly, "Now, three victims are accusing you of assault, and your wallet is still on you. The situation is clear."

"Are you going to get in the car on your own, or do I need to handcuff you first?"

At this moment, the three pickpockets had gathered together, pointing and laughing at Su Yang. The two British police officers also moved closer from both sides, clearly intending to use force.

"How dare you!"

Su Yang spoke each word deliberately, and in an instant, a layer of frost seemed to envelop the area within a dozen meters, the temperature dropping sharply.

"Get down on your knees, hands on your head, now!" The fat officer shivered, drew his gun, and pointed it at Su Yang.

With Su Yang's abilities, he could easily leave and avoid the trouble, but now that things had reached this point, he didn't intend to just walk away.

A sinister smile appeared on his lips, and he said calmly, "I still show some respect to the police back home, but here, I don't need to. So, you two scoundrels are in for some trouble."

"Stop talking nonsense and get down on your knees immediately!" The fat officer waved his hand, signaling his companion to pin Su Yang down.

"Spewing nonsense, you don't need those teeth anyway."

Su Yang said this in Chinese, which the officers didn't understand, but the next moment, the fat officer experienced the true meaning of these words firsthand.

Everyone saw a blur, and Su Yang seemed to teleport, suddenly appearing in front of the fat officer. He grabbed the officer's fat neck with one hand and lifted him up. A series of "cracking" sounds followed, and when Su Yang returned to his original position, the fat officer's head was swollen to more than twice its normal size, and he had lost several teeth.
